<p>“Não fique com pressa de aplicar o mata-leão, é aí que o lutador perde a posição”, ensina Barbosa.</p>
<p>Repare como o professor faz a pegada mão com mão por baixo do queixo do oponente. Depois, ele desliza e, com tranquilidade, encaixa os ganchos. Estude e comente o que achou!</p>

<p>Os desafios sempre fizeram parte da história do Jiu-Jitsu, dentro e fora do dojô. Em São Paulo, a arte suave tem funcionado como poderosa ferramenta social. Inspirado no desafio do balde de gelo, que viralizou na internet, os faixas-pretas Marcos Barbosa e Fabio Devisate criaram uma nova corrente, entre os professores e alunos da equipe Barbosa.</p>
<p>Fabio explicou como funciona o desafio, que visa à doação de alimento para instituições de caridade.</p>
<p>“No desafio B9 Solidário, a pessoa é desafiada a postar em 24 horas uma foto de kimono segurando cinco diferentes alimentos, sendo obrigatoriamente 1kg de arroz e 1kg de feijão. Os alimentos serão entregues na matriz da equipe até 11 de setembro, para serem doados a uma entidade. Cada desafiado tem como obrigação desafiar outras cinco pessoas”, detalha.</p>
<p>“Em cinco dias de desafio chegamos a uma tonelada de alimentos arrecadados”, comemora Fabio.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_18079" style="width: 486px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/giba-moyano.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-18079" class="size-full wp-image-18079" title="giba moyano" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/giba-moyano.jpg" alt="" width="476" height="347" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-18079" class="wp-caption-text">Giba performs triangle.

<p>Jiu-Jitsu shows how it’s possible to ease complicated situations and turn them around, whether in the dojo or in life. One of the greatest lessons of the mat is that there are ways to overcome the obstacle, regardless of what it is. Take Helio Gracie, for example, who through the gentle art overcame health problems during childhood, and adapted his game in such a way as to handle much bigger and stronger opponents. Helio in his day definitively revolutionized fight techniques, and debunked concepts considered solid up until that point.</p>
<p>The keyword is “adaptation.” The thousands of – maybe even infinite – possibilities well-learnt Jiu-Jitsu provides are adapted as best suited to each individual, without regard to weight, strength, age, sex… That’s the case with Gilberto “Gibs” Moya, a Marcos Barbosinha and Mario Dias black belt.</p>
<p>First let’s recapitulate, though: In March of this year, GRACIEMAG.com published an article about Russell Redenbaugh. Blind and missing fingers, Redenbaugh earned his black belt at sixty-five years of age. Excited about it, he didn’t hesitate to send us first hand news of him being the first person with such a disability to make it to the highest order.</p>
<div id="attachment_18080" style="width: 489px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/GibaMoyano1.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-18080" class="size-full wp-image-18080" title="GibaMoyano1" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/GibaMoyano1.jpg" alt="" width="479" height="343" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-18080" class="wp-caption-text">Now Giba goes for the armbar. Photo: personal archive</p></div>
<p>It didn’t take long for the newsroom to be flooded by messages asking to correct the error: Brazil’s Giba Moyano, 100% blind due to congenital cataracts, was a black belt before then, and his story deserves telling. Now twenty-eight years old, with fourteen years of gentle art experience, Giba was promoted on July 27, 2008. But Jiu-Jitsu changed his life definitively when he was still a white belt.</p>
<p>“I was a thirteen-year-old, and I was lost. It’s a phase where we naturally feel very insecure, and that was made worse because I couldn’t see. After six months I already felt a heck of a difference. Jiu-Jitsu provided me the psychological structure to face a lot of life’s other challenges,” Giba tells GRACIEMAG.com.</p>
<p>He made many advances through the martial arts. Besides participating in major championships, Giba now has Jiu-Jitsu as a profession, a way to make a living.</p>
<p>“I’ve been teaching at an academy in Praia Grande, coastal São Paulo, since 2004. Along with the many valuable lessons, Jiu-Jitsu also gave me the opportunity to work. Ten years ago I never would have imagined it,” he says.</p>
<p>The only thing Giba laments  is the fact that so few people with disabilities seek the martial arts.</p>
<p>“I’d love to do such work, but there isn’t much demand.”</p>
<p>Whether or not Giba is Jiu-Jitsu’s first blind black belt, truth is  it doesn’t matter. The main lesson is that whether the hardship is big or little depends, in part, on ourselves and the actions we take to turn them around. And always remember your great friend: Jiu-Jitsu will be your ally at all times!</p>The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/jiu-jitsu-to-break-all-barriers/">Jiu-Jitsu to break all barriers</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></content:encoded>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>A falta de visão não é obstáculo para Giba Moyano, mais um faixa-preta casca-grossa e vencedor na vida, ao lado da arte suave.</p>
The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/o-jiu-jitsu-quebra-qualquer-barreira/">Jiu-Jitsu para cegos: a arte de quebrar qualquer barreira</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_18079-2" style="width: 486px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/giba-moyano.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-18079-2" class="size-full wp-image-18079" title="giba moyano" alt="" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/giba-moyano.jpg" width="476" height="347" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-18079-2" class="wp-caption-text">Giba aplica o triângulo. Foto: arquivo pessoal</p></div>
<p>O Jiu-Jitsu mostra que é possível amenizar e reverter situações complicadas, seja nos dojôs ou na vida. Uma das grandes lições nos tatames é que, independentemente do obstáculo, há formas de ele ser superado. Lembremos de Helio Gracie, por exemplo, que com a arte suave venceu os problemas de saúde, quando criança, e adaptou o jogo de modo a superar oponentes muito mais pesados e fortes. Helio, em seu tempo, revolucionou definitivamente as técnicas de luta e pôs abaixo conceitos até então sólidos.</p>
<p>A palavra é “adaptação”. As diversas – quase infinitas – possibilidades que o Jiu-Jitsu bem aprendido proporciona são adaptadas da melhor maneira para cada indivíduo, sem importar o peso, a força, a idade, o sexo&#8230; É assim também para Gilberto Moyano, o Giba, faixa-preta de Marcos Barbosinha e Mario Dias.</p>
<p>Antes, vamos recapitular: em março deste ano GRACIEMAG.com publicou matéria com Russell Redenbaugh (ver <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/pt/2010/03/russell-redenbaugh-e-o-1%C2%BA-cego-a-tornar-se-faixa-preta-de-jiu-jitsu/" target="_blank">aqui</a>). Cego e sem alguns dos dedos, Redenbaugh recebeu a faixa-preta aos 65 anos de idade. Empolgados, não titubeamos em noticiá-lo como o primeiro deficiente desse tipo a alcançar a graduação máxima.</p>
<div id="attachment_18080-2" style="width: 489px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/GibaMoyano1.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-18080-2" class="size-full wp-image-18080" title="GibaMoyano1" alt="" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/GibaMoyano1.jpg" width="479" height="343" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-18080-2" class="wp-caption-text">Agora Giba vai de armlock. Foto: arquivo pessoal</p></div>
<p>Não demorou para a redação receber diversas mensagens pedindo a reparação do erro. O brasileiro Giba Moyano, 100% cego graças a uma catarata congênita, já era faixa-preta antes disso, e sua história também merece ser contada. Hoje com 28 anos, 14 deles dedicados à arte suave, Giba foi graduado em 27 de julho de 2008. Mas o Jiu-Jitsu mudou sua vida, definitivamente, ainda na faixa-branca.</p>
<p>“Era adolescente, com 13 anos, e estava perdido. É uma fase em que, naturalmente, sentimos muita insegurança e isso se agravava muito mais por eu não enxergar. Em seis meses, já sentia uma diferença danada. O Jiu-Jitsu me deu a estrutura psicológica para enfrentar muitos outros desafios na vida”, conta Giba ao GRACIEMAG.com.</p>
<p>Os avanços com a luta foram muitos. Além de já ter participado de algumas competições, Giba hoje tem o Jiu-Jitsu como profissão, uma oportunidade de trabalho.</p>
<p>“Ensino desde 2004 numa academia na Praia Grande, no litoral de São Paulo. Entre tantos avanços valiosos, o Jiu-Jitsu também me deu a oportunidade de trabalhar. Há dez anos, jamais poderia me imaginar fazendo isso”, diz.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" title="Graduação Jiu Jitsu faixa preta primeiro cego do mundo Giba Moyano" width="650" height="488" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/b_Zr0qXEH0Y?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>O único lamento de Giba é o fato de poucas pessoas com deficiência procurarem avanços através da luta.</p>
<p>“Adoraria fazer um trabalho desse tipo, mas não há uma procura grande.”</p>
<p>Se Giba é ou não o primeiro faixa-preta cego no Jiu-Jitsu, na verdade, isso é o que menos importa. A grande lição é que para a dificuldade ser grande ou pequena depende, em parte, de nós mesmos e da ação que tomaremos para revertê-la. E lembre-se sempre desse grande amigo: o Jiu-Jitsu será seu aliado em todos os momentos!</p>The post <a href="https://www.graciemag.com/o-jiu-jitsu-quebra-qualquer-barreira/">Jiu-Jitsu para cegos: a arte de quebrar qualquer barreira</a> first appeared on <a href="https://www.graciemag.com">Graciemag</a>.]]></content:encoded>

<p>In the post of runner-up, Tiago Alves approved of their effort.</p>
<p>“It was awesome! I managed to do everything I’d trained to. When the opportunity to get the tapout arose, I got the tapout. In the tougher matches I used strategy and managed to win without getting any points scored on me out of carelessness. I think this is the best path, not being a prima-donna,” he told GRACIEMAG.com.</p>
<p>Now the next challenge will be the Jiu-Jitsu World Championship, to start June 3 in California.</p>
<p>“I’m heading to the Worlds; I even have my ticket. Murilo and I are both going. He’s my right hand man in training; we help each other a lot. It just makes our Jiu-Jitsu better.”</p>
<div style="width: 510px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" src="https://www.graciemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/4615750724_a2d87d0ac0.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Tiago gets past Guga in the semifinal. Photo: Carlos Ozorio</p></div>
<p>In California Thiago expects greater difficulty in taking the division title.</p>
<p>“From what I saw at the Pan, where there were several favorites and many lost, it’ll be rough. Over there everyone’s a favorite and there’s no way to give any one in particular the nod. If he gets out of a footlock or a triangle, that guy’s going to be champion.”</p>
<p>The gold medalist at the Brazilian Nationals, Murilo Santana didn’t expect so much. The fighter had devoted his time to MMA. His debut was postponed and there wasn’t much time to prepare in the gi.</p>
<p>“I went in pretty much without expecting much, but helping the folks train for the event. I didn’t expect it and was really pleased. There were some tough matches, but I managed to submit everyone in the weight group, closing out the final with Tiago and everything went well,” says the black belt, happy about his perfect campaign.</p>
